My hoggie girl has just had her first feed of 2 pinkies which she took no bother at all, how long do you think I should give her on 2 pinkies per feed before I try her with a small fluff? She was being fed 1 pinkie every 4 days but now as she's on 2 pinkies I'll feed every 5 days, does this sound ok?

Thanks

Bob won't eat anything larger than a small fuzzy, so although he should be on something bigger now, I just give him two fuzzies. I don't think it really matters - he's certainly growing anyway!

Vedder hatched in May same as my girl right? Are you feeding him 1 or 2 pinkies per feed?



Yeah hes 19th May. The guy in the shop looks out large pinkies for me. Vedder was taking 2 small pinkies but now hes taking one large pinkie and I prepare a small one too. He sometimes wont take the small one after the large, and sometimes he will.

He struggled to get the nxt size up eaten, as th hips/legs were a prob for him. He tried for over an hr before spitting it back out. So I prepared him his usual pinkies and he ate them fine xx

My baby was hatched in June, she took 2 pinkies, apparently she has been taking 2 every 3-4 days. Same with the male, but he's not eaten with us yet
